De la biblioteca
“These are all so many empty words, my dear sir,” said Morcerf: “they might satisfy a new acquaintance, but the Comte de Morcerf does not rank in that list; and when a man like him comes to another, recalls to him his plighted word, and this man fails to redeem the pledge, he has at least a right to exact from him a good reason for so doing.”
It encourages the comfortable belief that our character will be revealed, and perhaps redeemed, in some future moment of crisis, and that the rest of life is a kind of morally neutral waiting room.
